Could anyone recommend a good (preferably free) graphics card for my PC (Win 7, 64-bit)? I just removed the NVIDIA, as I felt it wasn't doing anything and was very displeased with its performance.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI recently obtained a number of large video files. They have several different file types (file extensions). Among those types are:
.AVI .MKV .MPG .MPE .MP4 .WMV
There are other types as well.I'd very much like to perform some simple editing on these files. The most common editing operation is to extract or "split" a large file into several smaller component files. In other words, each of thse large files contain several small files - all strung together.For example, there may be 4 or 5 video clips in each file. Instead of creating one file for each "clip", the person who created these files just concatenated them all together in one file.So, I'd like to "split" each of these clips out of the single file and create a number of separate files - one for each clip.In addition, I would very much like to be able to convert files of one type to another type.I don't know a lot about the attributes of the various file types. I've read about them in Wikipedia and so I know a lttle about the reasons these file types were created and what the various differences are among them. The main reason that I'd like to convert most of these files to a single file type is that I consider it kind of sloppy to leave these files in there original file types.I have used the app Irfanview in the past to perform similar conversions on "still" files such as .JPEG or .GIF files.
1) How easy or difficult is it to convert video files from one type to another?
2) Should I expect to find one app that can do both editing and conversions? Or should I expect to get several different apps - some to convert files and some to edit files?

View 9 Replies View Relatedi have heard a lot of my friends saying that they are unable to play high resolution and high definition games on their pc and told that they are on a low budget to buy a graphics card.here is a solution for that:there is a software named 3-d analyzer available in the internet which acts as a virtual graphics card for playing games. you can enter the graphic card needed from the 4 available graphic cards available and then you can get the attributes of that graphic card..if fine tuned,you can play games at the range of a 128mb ram virutal graphic card on your non graphic card pc. note:graphic intensive games,that requires atleast 512mb of graphics memory can't be played through 3d analyzer if you don't have a graphic card,but you can try running it if you have a 256/128 mb card. steps for using the 3-d analyzer software, *first download the file from here, *then extract that software and open the software, *then,select the exe file of the game that you want to run, *choose the select option, *then you can choose the attributes the options you require to play the game,*the attributes may be pixel shader or disable rendering in the game or emulation or some other options specified, *then,enter the device id and the vendor id for the graphics card you need from the available graphics card on the right.*i would suggest the ati radeon 9800pro to run most of the games like fifa 08/09 or prince of persia two thrones/sands of time, *then choose the run option and then i assure that the game would run for you at a decent/playable speed. note:1.if it shows any error that a file is not found pls reinstall the software.2.if the screen turns black/blank then play with the options in the s/w, by trial and error method,if fortunate,may be,you'll be able to run your favorite game.3.if pixel shader/shader version x.x not found,then select the appropriate shader model and run the game. all the best..happy gaming..if any queries post it below.how to: use 3d analyzer video at Internet

View 7 Replies View RelatedI've completed a new custom build, but have had problems with BSOD from the beginning with any installation of Intel Graphics drivers or the installation of any graphics card.
When I first completed the build, the XFX-7950 Black was installed. I booted to BIOS without issue, but when I inserted the Windows 7 (64 bit) it would boot through the windows logo screen but immediately BSOD right after going to the first install screen.
I removed the graphics card, and was able to complete the full Windows install without issue. I updated Windows and the drivers on the system but as soon as I installed the Intel 3000 Graphics driver, it would BSOD on every restart. I recovered back prior to the Graphics driver install and installed all other drivers. I updated the BIOS to the latest version.
I have reattempted the XFX 7950 multiple times in different slots, but with the same results. I also attempted my Radeon HD 4550 from my old computer but it gave the same results. It always boots through the Windows logo screen, but BSOD within a few seconds of reaching the password screen.
I broke down and installed Driver Whiz, which did detect multiple outdated drivers that I had not caught, but none of these fix the issues.
I've attached the requested zip. I don't think all BSOD's are showing up, as I've had to use recovery points after installed drivers didn't work. The last .dmp on 19 JUL was a Intel Graphics driver install attempt that I pulled off in safe mode before recovering back to the pre-driver point.
System:
ASUS P8Z68-V Pro/GEN 3
Intel 2600K
XFX R7950 Black Edition
OCZ 850W
Crucial 128 GB SSD
Seagate Barracuda 1 TB HD
Corsair H100
Windows 7 64 bit (full)
I was stupid and accidentally uninstalled my AMD Catalyst Program in an attempt to update the drivers. Now I cant switch to the card from the integrated Intel card. I can't restore the computer or re-install the program. When I try to re-install it, its doesn't work but there are no errors.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am ordering a new PC, and would like some advice on which graphics card to choose. The three I am considering (can afford) are:
1GB Nvidia Geforce GTS 250
1GB ATI Radeon HD 4870
1GB ATI Radeon HD 4850X2
Which card will give me better performance on max settings on a demanding game like GTA IV.
The rest of the system is as follows:
AMD Phenom II x4 @ 3.00GHz
4GB Corsair DDR3 RAM
1TB HDD

View 8 Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded from XP to Win 7 Ultimate 32bit. I have always had two graphics cards - NVIDIA GeForce 7025 and AMD Radeon HD4300/4500 with the latter used to feed via HDMI cable to my Plasma TV.Since the upgrade, the AMD card appears to be the default card and any attempt to run the NVIDIA Control Panel results in a warning that "You are not currently using a display attached to an NVIDIA GPU".
The PC functions okay but I've lost a number of controls I was familiar with via NVIDIA and I may also be losing performance too. How do I get back to where I was under XP when NVIDIA was the main card ?
I want to know which graphics card from ati or nvidia is compatible to windows 7. I have a Nvidia GeForce 6200 but it doesn't work on windows 7.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI haven't posted on here for a while because I've been taking a break from my computer and playing LOTRO which was causing me occasional bsod's which were really getting me down. I took a break from LOTRO for around 6 months and not once did I get a bsod on my computer despite my husband and son playing other games on my computer.I've recently come back to LOTRO since the new update of migrating to the US servers to see how it would run on my computer and to see if the bsod's returned. They did and the new update hasn't changed a thing. Each time I get the bsod my graphics card is named as the cause of the culprit.I have a Dual GPU and I found that AMD says this. Quote.For The Ultimate Visual Experience, be sure to select ATI CrossFireX ready motherboards for AMD and Intel processors and multiple ATI Radeon HD graphics cards. Now I've done a search and it looks like my motherboard - Gigabyte GA-770T-USB3 -isn't Crossfire ready.Before I take the plunge and buy a crossfire ready motherboard, would having a Dual GPU cause problems if my motherboard isn't crossfire ready? Or would it not make a difference as I've only got the one card? I've downloaded the profiles for the ATI drivers for Crossfire/dual GPU's but I haven't installed it yet, as I'm not sure whether because my motherboard isn't Crossfire ready it's going to cause further conflict and even more problems when I'm playing LOTRO.I didn't realize that when I got the graphics card that it was a dual GPU
View 6 Replies View RelatedI tried to update my ATI driver and uninstalled the old ones first. When I went to download the new drivers, it said it "The version of your graphics adapter is not supported." I went to check in Device Managers, and now under Display Adapters it no longer lists my ATI HD 5650 graphics card, neither does dxdiag (which i ran a week earlier and it did detect the graphics card). Also, 'Standard VGA Graphics adapter' has a yellow "!" but when I tried to update the drivers for it, it says I already have the most recent ones but still has the "!".
